DISASTER LOOMS IN ABOUT 13 STATES OVER RELEASE OF CAMEROON’S LAGDO DAM.(PHOTO).



Disaster looms in about 13 States over release of Cameroon’s Lagdo Dam


Authorities at the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) have been alerted to a possible flooding along the River Benue basin in a few days due to the imminent release of water from the Lagdo Dam in Cameroon.


The Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued the alert in a letter dated August 21, signed by the director of African Affairs, Umar Salisu.


The Ministry of Foreign Affairs, East and Central African Division, in the letter, noted that it received a Note Verbale from the High Commission of the Republic of Cameroon indicating that Cameroon’s officials had resolved to open the flood gates of the Lagdo Dam on the Benue River.


The development, according to the letter addressed to the director general of NEMA, said it was due to increased rainfall in the dam’s catchment areas in Northern Cameroon.


There has been massive flooding in many states across the country attributed to the release of water from the Lagdo Dam.


A Memorandum of Understanding was signed in 2016 between Nigeria and Cameroon regarding the release of water from the dam, in which Cameroon will always inform Nigeria before it opens the gates to the dam.


However, in 2019, the dam was opened without prior notification, resulting in flooding in Adamawa, Taraba, Benue, Kogi, and the Niger Delta regions during October and November of that year.


The states likely to seriously affected are Adamawa, Taraba, Benue, Nasarawa, Kogi, Anambra, Enugu, Edo, Delta, Rivers and Bayelsa States.
